This week on our deep dive into 1986, Chris wants us to take a trip around the world. Errr, sort of. There's a lot of Britain and U.S. here. But the idea is to feature songs about places. Errr, sort of. You'll get the B-52s, the Beastie Boys, Frank Zappa, Madonna and the Housemartins (for some reason).

This week on our deep dive into 1986, Tim explores late nights, red wine, blazing fires and a lot of SEX, BABY. It's time to settle into a long evening of the Quiet Storm. We're talking Luther, Chaka, Anita, Smokey, Aretha, and five other artists. SEX.

This week we discuss very selfish country songs, tunes that only want to "talk about me." It's a good way to get a lay of the land in 1986 country music, and we'll hear from stars like Geo...

Mitch Ryder broke through with a blue-eyed growl in the 1960s, bringing a hard-edged and sultry Detroit sound to blues-based rock. But in 1967 his career was at a sudden crossroads, so he wrote a song inspired by his daughter. What followed was, in many ways, the end of Ryder's career as a hitmaker.
This is The Almost Famous, a podcast about songs that peaked at No. 41 on the Billboard Hot 100.

As we come to the end of the main Hall of Songs timeline, we nominate the final four songs through the Veterans Committee. Spoiler: We've reached Peak Chris.
Later, Tim and Chris talk about Christmas songs. Has Billboard gone too far in how it calculates the Hot 100? Can we get beyond the 15 or so standards that get overplayed every holiday? And what other songs should we paying attention to?

Hall of Songs has chronicled the history of popular Western music since 1951, and after nearly three years, has arrived at 2010. It's a year of "indie" breakthroughs from artists such as Beach House and the Black Keys, and of mainstream smashes from those such as Katy Perry and Rihanna.
Settle in and listen as we give you our top-12 songs of the year. Note: No voting until the next Veterans' Committee episode, which we hope ...
As we head toward the end of Hall of Songs' voting timeline, we see if big names like Lady Gaga, Adele, Jay-Z, Miley Cyrus and Drake have what it takes to put a song into the pantheon. Plus, we induct a new member into our 0-Votes Club (thanks, listeners).
